TRAK has developed a new high power Space Qualified SSPA isolator.
Based on the same outline as TRAK’s 3.7 to 4.2 GHz high power SSPA isolator (as used on such payloads as SES-2), the latest product is designed to operate over 4.2 to 4.8 GHz and handle a forward or reverse power of 30W CW at an elevated base-plate temperature. Engineering models have recently been delivered and flight models are scheduled to be shipped in Q4 2015.
| Parameter | Value | Measure |
| Operating Frequency | 4.2 to 4.8 | GHz |
| Operating Power | 30 | W Average (forward or reverse) |
| Insertion Loss | 0.25 | dB max. |
| Return Loss (SMA) | 23.0 | dB min. |
| Return Loss (tab) | 21.0 | dB min. |
| Isolation | 23.0 | dB min. |
TRAK produces a wide range of Isolators for SSPA applications in L, S & C-Bands ranging in power to 150W CW.
